'Alan Cumming Snaps!': The 'Good Wife' actor's Photography Debut (SLIDESHOW)

Alan Cumming practices a different kind of aim-and-shoot. From now
until Nov. 4, the Scottish-born actor's first ever photography
exhibition drops down at the Paul Smith gallery in Los Angeles. The concerns of Alan Cumming Snaps!
aren't exotic so much as exotically familiar: the OBE presents
cherries, knees, and -- because how can you not -- some truly charming
selfies.

Scroll through our favorites from the show below, all of which have

Alan Cumming on shooting videos of his big nights out
From New York Post:

Alan Cumming is a video vigilante, sometimes turning the camera on himself.

“I see things on the street and video them just in case,” he told us at an event for Peter Gabriel’s Witness, a human rights organization that teaches activists how to take footage, at Roseland on Thursday.

The Good Wife star Cumming said, “Sometimes on my phone in the morning after a big night out I look at the things I have taken like, ‘Oh.’ There is evidence like that of some disastrous occurrence.”
